You still haven't explained why a standard muzzle brake silencer adapter, which clearly acts in the same fashion as this brake, and also functions as a short baffle stack when used in combination with a suppressor tube is somehow different. What if the Surefire/AAC brake was theoretically longer and acted as half the baffles in the tube? What if it replaced all of the internal baffles? It doesn't change the fact that it acts as a brake absent the true silencer parts(the tube/endcap).

So your argument is correct because FTB currently misinterprets the law and wouldn't allow AAC to sell him a monocore brake? I'm guessing they will after this case is over with.

And there is no requirement that a cheese grater be the most efficient design.

But the bottomline is that when SIG designed that "muzzle brake", they designed it FIRST as a silencer baffle stack that fits precisely into an optional silencer tube with the intended purpose of silencing the report of a firearm, so therefor it is a silencer part. The word "only" in the below silencer definition was put there so people wouldn't be charged with illegal suppressor parts if they owned common pipe, steel wool, rivets, washers etc with other real intended purposes.


The term “Firearm Silencer” or “Firearm Muffler” means any device for silencing, muffling, or diminishing the report of a portable firearm, including any combination of parts, designed or redesigned, and intended for the use in assembling or fabricating a firearm silencer or firearm muffler, and any part intended only for use in such assembly or fabrication.

Any device that meets the definition as stipulated above in 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(24) is also subject to controls as defined in the National Firearms Act, 26 U.S.C., Chapter 53

Why don't you call every silencer manufacturer in the USA and try to buy some monolithic suppressor baffle cores, presenting your argument they they should be sold without any restrictions because you plan to attach them to your gun and use them for a muzzle brake. Let us know how many of these manufacturers agree with you and are willing to ship you the cores without any NFA paperwork. Go for it and report back.

http://www.shootingwire.com/features/228649


The ruling went on to remind the ATF that having "a tail, grey skin and four legs" didn't make an animal an "elephant" or a child's bicycle a motorcycle because it had "three characteristics of motorcycles: two rubber tires, handlebars and a leather seat."

He didn't stop there. He went on to point out that a Bud Light is not a Single-Malt Scotch because it is "frequently served in a glass container, contains alcohol and is served in a tavern" any more than a hockey puck is a "rubber bullet" because it has "rounded sides, is made of vulcanized rubber, and is capable of causing injury when launched at high speeds."

"Learning that one object has three characteristics in common with some category," he wrote, "may not be very helpful in determining whether the object in question belongs in that category."

Again, all you are saying is that you're correct because the ATF FTB won't allow manufacturers to currently sell monocore brakes due to their misinterpretation of the law. It's quite apparent you're unable to put together a coherent argument about how Sig's version of a muzzle device that has blast chambers, threads, and allows a silencer tube to be attached is somehow different from everyone else, so you're just falling back on ATF's opinion as being totally correct.

The nice thing about this rifle is that the barrel is a full 16 inches long with the permanently attached baffles, so you can buy the gun on a standard 4473 and then use it while you wait for the paperwork on the shroud (the serialized part) to come back from the NFA branch.

Mono-core comes from the suppressor world.  The majority of suppressor use a stack of baffles pressed against each other inside of a tube.  Some newer suppressors use a mono-core design where one piece of metal is cut to make all of the baffles in a one piece stack.



Brake's are pretty much all one piece, their might be some oddballs around that are assembled from multiple pieces but they are unusual.



The terms is being used because a couple companies have started making dual purpose muzzle brake/baffle stack designs. We'll find out in time whether they get to keep making them as unregulated parts or not.

Good catch.

Was using it more for illustrative purposes since 57 insists that there is some difference between a mono-core and a brake. I guess mono-core "style" brakes would be a more appropriate way to say it.

The judge is Paul Barbadoro and he has dealt with at least one notable firearms case:


On July 6, 2012, the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit upheld the ruling of Judge Barbadoro, holding that a NH man could not be held liable for the use of his handgun in a violent crime. Gail Jones, the mother of a shooting victim, filed a lawsuit alleging that Lawrence Secord was liable for the use of his handgun by his grandson in an armed robbery that resulted in three fatalities in 2007. Secord's gun was stolen by his grandson, who broke into a locked summer cabin to obtain the firearm. Barbadoro agreed with Secord that he had taken proper precautions to secure his firearm. Judge Bruce Marshall Selya agreed, writing the opinion of the panel consisting of Judges Jeffrey R. Howard and O. Rogeriee Thompson. He stated in the opinion, "The record here, even when construed in the light most flattering to the plaintiff, does not show either a particularized risk of harm or a degree of foreseeability sufficient to animate this exception." Jones told the press she brought the lawsuit on to raise awareness of gun storage and risk, telling the press, "Firearms are very dangerous when they're in the wrong hands."

They have 60 days from the date they received the summons, not 60 days from the filing date.  You would have to look at the return of service to see what date they were served.




Note: Rather than file an answer by day 60, they could do a variety of things such as file a motion to dismiss or file a motion for more time to respond.

no it isn't.

It would be if it vented to the top, but it vents to the side.
the muzzle blast will encounter the closest part of the baffle first, pushing downwards.

I know that you as a individual couldn't own the suppressor in question in California if it ever went for sale.

More than that it was a gentle nudge in response to your silly comment that added nothing to the discussion

No plans for them IIRC. However, they do plan a .357SIG version.

10m /45 would be a whole different gun for the most part or a very long 9/40. The 9/40 also make up the lions share of PCC sales so it makes sense to start there.

You can hunt deer with .40 in Ohio as long as its in "pistol" configuration. 10mm isn't on the new pistol caliber rifle list either.

Technically, it's legal in Tennessee to hunt deer with a .25acp handgun (unless they've changed the regs, again), while some years ago it was illegal to hunt deer in Tennessee with a .357mag handgun.

If manufacturers tried to keep up with the hunting regs of each state (and the yearly changes), it would drive them nuts.
